Published: September 1993

We did follow-up examinations of flexor tendon sutures of 161 digits in 151 patients treated according to the Mantero-technique. They revealed that the urgence différée still has its merits today. The results of the sutures in zone 2 correspond to those of zone 1, if only one tendon is affected (zone 2.1), while they are clearly inferior, when two tendons are involved (zone 2.2).
